[edit] User:Mike Dillon/Lothlorien Hall

Do you still need the contents of User:Mike Dillon/Lothlorien Hall? It's been sitting there for several months without being edited. Hosting deleted content indefinitely in userspace violates the "Wikipedia is not a free web host" policy, so if you have no further need of it I can delete it. --Sam Blanning^(talk) 11:10, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Please check if I have added the script properly

diff. Thank you for your time. S. Miyano 05:02, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Level-0 usercats

Indeed, those five usercats you listed on my talk page are all being discussed for deletion right now on UCFD. en-0 is vehemently protested by some people, but there's definitely a general consensus to speedy the others. I think you got the templates spot on, except for Template:User iso15924/category-intro, which still needs to suppress the 0-level's. We definitely don't want to delete any userboxes. Thank you so much. Xiner (talk, email) 15:26, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Yippee! I think it's a job well done now. Thank you! Xiner (talk, email) 15:36, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Sure, take your time when replying to this...

If I understand you correctly, we have to wait a little bit for all the changes to show up on the affected pages? How do you propose taking care of the faulty language inclusions? It seems to me the only solution there would be to go through those templates one by one? Xiner (talk, email) 15:47, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Ah, ok. Well, I guess it was good that the bot didn't get to touch every category - somehow a lot of them were left out of the job that I'd posted on CFD/Working, and I ended up removing the code from many templates by hand. I could've missed some myself though.

Anyway, is there a place we can post this list and ask for outside help? I don't quite fancy going through it again, although it wouldn't be immediately apparent to others either. Xiner (talk, email) 02:16, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Well, you should know I'm very happy to hear that. And yes, substituting userboxes is evil. I'm always happy when closing UCFDs and finding templates as the originator. Xiner (talk, email) 14:48, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bakersfield, California

Mike, you know anything about Bakersfield? It is taking some massive edits from an anon IP. Thanks, Ronbo76 02:25, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

BTW, I put some concerns on its talkpage but tonight's POV push on crime is sparking an edit war. Ronbo76 02:27, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Unfortunately with some of the wikilinks and citation used, I cannot revert unless it is a direct POV push. I will look at the citation again. If you are sure about it not meeting WP:RS, please post on the talkpage as this will give me leeway. Ronbo76 03:58, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] thanks for your cat-0 work

		The Working Man's Barnstar
		Thanks for your work in fixing so many users' redlinked categories (language-0, etc.). Surely a tedious and thankless job, but here are one user's thanks. Kyoko 03:52, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

You're quite welcome. --Kyoko 04:02, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] thanks

Hey thanks. I understood the intent of PatPeter when he deleted nonexisting categories, but he completely messed up the formatting. As for that User:Sadjhds' vandalism, he wrote a page, several times, at Vicipaedia with the content:

Felix longus looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooongus est.

And for the record, I did warn him in Latin (03:25, 21 Martii 2007 (hist) (diss) Disputatio Usoris:75.27.150.231 (Nova pagina: 'Confiteor, risi... at nisi nugas correxeris, te obstruam. Intellegen?--~~~~) (vertex) [reverti])

Thanks for your reversion of vandalism, and your post on his page. Thanks also for doing the (pardon the pun) thankless job of category sorting. Cheers!--Ioshus^(talk) 17:22, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
